FW: Dear Congress: I Pay Taxes, I Did Not Cause the Recession.

Dear Friend or Acquaintance:

 

I'm not trying to change your political stance on anything here. But this shutdown nonsense only hurts our troops and Social Security recipients and government employees and the like. Can you live without your paycheck for an indefinite time? I sure can't. It's not fair. So if you have a moment, send a letter or call your congressman's office and explain why the Speak of the House Boehner is wrong with what he's proposing to allow to happen. Especially for our troops……….Thanks.

Friend,

It appears likely that our government will shut down tomorrow. We are deeply disappointed that a small gang of beltway insiders have chosen this drastic political stunt, which will slow our economic recovery and hurt American families.

We have initiated a letter-writing campaign to Congress to ask them to do better, now and in the future. Will you sign the letter below and share it with your friends?

Dear Congress,

Please remember: you are fighting over how to spend our money.  We the People pay 33.7% of the Federal Fund while corporations pay 7.2%. Many corporations pay no taxes at all.  Yet your entire focus during this budget battle has been on how much to hurt the people.

We did not cause the recession, the deficit, or the national debt.  We know this, and we need you to know that we are aware of a corrupt system in which corporations spend their vast wealth to lobby and manipulate you.

We know that's why the tax code so unjustly burdens us while favoring them. We know this is why Elizabeth Warren and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are under attack from the US Chamber of Commerce and other powerful lobbyists. We know that is why your policies reward multinational corporations, including those that DID cause the recession, with bailouts, bonuses, and tax benefits.

As you wrangle over how much to hurt our quality of life and jeopardize our future, consider ways to create jobs and invest in our future.

Congress should work together on how to help us, not fight over how to hurt us.

Sincerely,

Three men coming home from dinner in the mountains above Boulder, Colo., saw an injured animal in the road. They stopped and picked it up, deciding to take it to a veterinarian. “It looked up as if to say, ‘Help me’,” said Jason Lee Laird, 21, who decided the animal was a lynx or a bobcat. The cat filled the entire back of the Jeep they were driving, and on the way down the hill they spotted a sheriff’s deputy and flagged him down. The deputy was shocked to find a 65-lb. mountain lion cub in the Jeep and called in the Dept. of Wildlife to take care of it. Then Deputy Jeff Canton turned to another matter: he told Laird he smelled marijuana. Laird offered that perhaps that was the smell of mountain lion urine — maybe the cat peed in the Jeep? “Mountain lions don’t smoke marijuana,” Canton replied, and cited Laird for drug possession. A DOW spokesman said it may be the largest mountain lion ever rescued by civilians in the state, and that the men were lucky to be alive. The cat was not as lucky: its injuries were so severe it had to be put down. (Boulder Daily Camera) ...DOW officers were surprised to find the cat very docile, addressing them as “Hey, mannn.”
